After the host binds to the childbearing system, one baby will be born.

The staff member stood up and said, "The boss is in the back office right now. I'll go call him for you."

After a while, a middle-aged man in casual clothes came out with the staff: "Hello, I'm the boss here, what can I do for you?"

Xiao Yanke: "Boss, how long has your secret room been open?"

The boss said, “It’s only been open for a month.”

Xiao Yanke: "When I came here to play a while ago, I accidentally dropped a ring. It's quite expensive and very important to me. Can you let me see the surveillance? Or give me a copy of your surveillance for this month?"

The boss frowned and looked embarrassed: "This is not appropriate!"

"I'll give you the money!" Xiao Yanke said, and transferred 10,000 yuan to the boss.

The boss immediately smiled and said, "Come with me!"

Xiao Yanke and Lin Shuwan followed the boss into the inner room and saw a medium-sized office with more than a dozen surveillance cameras facing several secret rooms.

Lin Shuwan saw the room where he often wandered before at a glance.

The boss copied out nearly a month's worth of surveillance videos. While waiting, he saw Xiao Yanke staring at the surveillance screen and said, "Come and play in the escape room. What do you think of the layout of my escape room? Is it scary enough? Is the level of decryption high?"

Xiao Yanke thought about how scared he was yesterday and laughed. Then he thought about something else and said, "It's spooky and scary."

The boss smiled meaningfully, leaned over to Xiao Yanke and whispered, "I spent a lot of time looking for the things inside, and some of them are relics of deceased people..."

Xiao Yanke immediately turned to look at the boss with a deep gaze.

The boss's smug expression changed, and he realized that he had said something wrong, and quickly said, "Don't look at me like that, I bought those relics with my own money, and I obtained them through legal channels."

"So did you receive a relic from a pink-haired girl?"

The boss thought for a moment and shook his head, "I have no impression. I received quite a lot of things, including everything. The sellers would not tell me about the deceased's situation, and the items delivered were all disinfected, so there would be no viruses or anything. Don't worry, our secret rooms are all safe!"

Xiao Yanke felt a little disappointed, but still nodded politely.

At this time, the copying was completed, and the boss handed the USB flash drive containing the surveillance footage to Xiao Yanke.

Xiao Yanke took the USB drive, glanced at Lin Shuwan who was following him, and said, "How about I go into the secret room and take a look?"

The boss saw him talking to himself beside him, and felt a chill on his neck for no apparent reason. He was puzzled: "Huh?"

Lin Shuwan said: "Aren't you afraid of the dark and ghosts?"

Xiao Yanke gritted his teeth and said, "Now that you're with me, I don't think it's a big deal."

Yesterday he was mainly frightened by Lin Shuwan.

Lin Shuwan shook his head: "Forget it, I don't remember what my relics are, and you won't be able to find them even if you go in."

Xiao Yanke sighed and had to leave with the USB drive.

The man and the ghost returned home.

At this time, night has fallen and when the door is opened, only the warm light from the entrance can be seen.

Xiao Yanke walked in and said, "Mom, Dad, sister, I'm back!"

Lin Shuwan, who was following Xiao Yanke, quickly floated into the house and said loudly, "Welcome home!"

The girl's voice was clear and pleasant, echoing in the empty room, but only Xiao Yan could hear it.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly and he smiled helplessly.

He hadn't heard these words for a long time since the accident.

Xiao Yanke walked into the living room, turned on the TV, and inserted the USB drive with the surveillance video into the computer. He said to Lin Shuwan, "You keep an eye on the surveillance video first. I'm going to cook!"

"it is good!"

Lin Shuwan felt that Xiao Yanke's mood became depressed after he came back. He wanted to ask something, but he didn't know how to start.

Watching Xiao Yanke busying herself in the kitchen, Lin Shuwan sat on the sofa and started watching the surveillance video.

About half an hour later, Xiao Yanke came out with the food and put it on the table: "Come and eat!"

"Eh!"

Lin Shuwan floated over, looked at the two dishes and one soup on the table, took a deep breath, and said, "I didn't expect you could cook home-cooked meals."

Xiao Yanke nodded silently: "Yes, my mother taught me that takeout is not clean, and making it yourself is hygienic and healthy."

Lin Shuwan drank the soup and asked hesitantly, "Your parents and sister..."

"Two years ago, they drove me to school, and on the way back, they accidentally got into a car accident and both died. My mom forgot to turn off the entrance light when they went back there... I kept it on, as if they had been waiting for me to come back."

Xiao Yanke lowered his head while eating, his tone indifferent, and his hand holding the chopsticks trembled slightly.

Lin Shuwan was silent for a moment, then said softly to comfort him, "Don't be sad. They must also hope that you can live a good life in the other world."

Xiao Yanke raised his head slightly and forced a smile: "I know, so I will try my best to live well."

"drink wine?"

"Ok?"

Xiao Yanke took out a few bottles of beer from the refrigerator, sat on the carpet in the living room, opened a can at random, tilted his head back and drank most of it. His protruding Adam's apple slid up and down as he swallowed, tears welled up in the corners of his eyes and his face was full of misery.

"If I had stopped them that day and not let them go back... they wouldn't have gotten into trouble..."

Lin Shuwan also opened a bottle and looked at Xiao Yanke's painful expression and sighed in his heart.

Xiao Yanke drank bottle after bottle and finally fell drunk on the sofa.

Screams could be heard from the TV from time to time. Xiao Yanke lay on the sofa with flushed cheeks, his brows slightly furrowed, and he was sleeping very uneasily.

Lin Shuwan picked the man up, dragged him into the room, and threw him on the bed.

She also lay in Xiao Yanke's arms, stretched out her hand to rub his frowning brows, patted him gently, and said softly, like coaxing a child: "Don't blame yourself anymore, this is not your fault."

She didn't stop until his brows gradually relaxed and he fell into a sound sleep, and then she stayed by his side quietly.

midnight.

As soon as Xiao Yanke opened his eyes, he saw Lin Shuwan lying in his arms, resting her head on his arm, her fox eyes staring straight at him.

His hands were tightly wrapped around Lin Shuwan's slender waist.

Xiao Yan could smell the faint fragrance on her and feel her cool temperature and breath.

Xiao Yanke was startled and pulled his hand back suddenly as if he had been electrocuted. His face flushed with shame and he stammered, "I'm... I'm sorry! I... I drank too much."

Lin Shuwan didn't care. He tilted his head and smiled, "It's okay. You've had too much to drink."

Xiao Yanke quickly sat up, not daring to look at Lin Shuwan again, and hurriedly got out of bed to go to the bathroom.

As soon as he entered the bathroom, he stood in front of the sink, looked at his slightly red face in the mirror, pursed his lips, and felt a panic in his heart.

He turned on the tap and splashed the cool water on his face, trying to calm himself down.

But all he could think of was the image of Lin Shuwan lying in his arms. The soft touch and faint fragrance seemed to still linger around him.
